Theo Silverton and Todd Grimshaw’s big move in Coronation Street didn’t go as smoothly as planned. What started as an exciting new chapter quickly turned tense when an unexpected visitor caused friction between the couple.
Moving In With High Hopes
The pair had already been through a lot before taking this step. Theo’s jealousy over Todd’s friendship with Billy Mayhew had been showing for weeks, and his behaviour turned controlling when he force-fed Todd. Despite that shocking moment, they didn’t break up. Instead, they decided to stay together and leave the Grimshaw household behind for a fresh start.
On moving day, Theo seemed eager to celebrate. He gave Todd matching aprons and keychains, calling the new flat everything he had ever wanted. For a moment, it looked like the couple were ready to turn a corner. But the atmosphere changed when George Shuttleworth turned up at the door with a flat-warming gift. Todd was happy to see his colleague and welcomed him in for a drink, even though Theo clearly wasn’t thrilled about the idea. From then on, the mood in the flat began to shift.
Coronation Street: Theo Can’t Hide His Frustration
What should have been a short visit dragged on. George joined them for pizza and even helped with unpacking boxes, completely missing Theo’s hints that it was time to leave. Theo’s irritation grew as the evening went on, and he struggled to keep his cool. Eventually, Theo resorted to sending Todd a text telling him to “get rid of him now.”
After George finally left, Theo explained that he wanted boundaries between their relationship and everyone else. But then he let slip what he really wanted, Todd all to himself. This wasn’t just about privacy. It was about Theo making it clear that he didn’t want Todd having outside connections, even with long-time friends and colleagues.
Where This Leaves Todd
Theo’s latest behaviour shows just how determined he is to keep Todd isolated. Todd might still think their new flat represents a fresh start, but the reality looks very different. The warning signs of control and manipulation are hard to miss.
Fans are now left questioning how far Theo is willing to go and whether Todd will recognise what’s happening before it becomes too late. What looked like the start of something new has quickly turned into something much more unsettling.
Theo has made his intentions clear; he wants Todd’s world to revolve solely around him. Whether Todd accepts this or pushes back is the twist viewers are waiting for. Stay tuned to Soap Opera Daily for all the latest Coronation Street updates and spoilers.
